Prediction: 1-1
Boavista
Portimonense and Boavista go head to head at Estadio Municipal de Portimao in what is expected to be a close Primeira Liga encounter. Portimonense are on a seven-game winless run, but this match could be the turning point for the home side. Brazil midfielder Anderson should keep his place in the starting XI despite failing to convert a penalty in a 1-1 draw with Ferreira, while both Achraf Lazaar and Pedro Sa are sidelined with injuries.
The Black and Whites, on the other hand, are on a six-game winless run in the Portuguese top flight. Boavista are only three points clear of the relegation zone, and seeing that they will go for a win in Sunday’s clash as well, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Luis Santos is banned for the match, while Yusupha Njie is back from international duty.
